#169243 Forgive My Noobness

Posted by Echnalaid on 14 August 2008 - 08:03 PM in Modifications

It's been said many times, but don't bother modding the Scout. To mod the hornet, don't open it up, just take a really long drill bit/other bladed rotating piece and a power drill/dremel/other rotary tool to drill the AR's out.

Posted by Echnalaid on 15 August 2008 - 10:55 AM in Nerf Wars

I found out a little too late about this one because i jsut started modding my magstirke, but it should be done by the time the next one rolls around. Just wanted to say hi and intro myself.


PS: Live by six flags(jackson/millstone) so if anyone wants to play PM me


Yeah! You should come! The more the nerfier! (If that is a word)



#169830 Nj War Recap

Posted by Echnalaid on 16 August 2008 - 09:07 PM in Nerf Wars

That was fun. My legs still have giant welts that look and feel like mosquito bites.
Here are a some photos me and my brother took. We took a lot, but I only chose the highlights of this war.
Posted Image
keef's Longshot.
Posted Image
keef's AT2K. I like this, it's very fun to use.
Posted Image
keef's Tech Target. I used this in our fort style battle.
Posted Image
Mind13's double Nite Finder. keef is holding my double Nite Finder.
Posted Image
Silencer and his Nite Finder. I think.
Posted Image
keef's holding his AT2K, and the little one is Mind13's brother holding an AT3K.
Posted Image
Me and Silencer shooting each other. I'm holding a crossbow (not nerf) and he's shooting his big blast.
Posted Image
DX's Max Shot. That hurts like hell! And he didn't even open it up!
Posted Image
Mind13's double Nite Finder
Posted Image
DX has Mind13's brother hostage.
Posted Image
DX is hungry. For foam forcefully shot by an AT2K.
Posted Image
Me and the AT3K.
Posted Image
My Hornet. It serves me well.
Posted Image
Silecer's Big Blast.
Posted Image
Silencer's Super Max 1500.

The funniest thing that happened.
(DX aims his Max Shot at me)
Me- Ahh! Don't shoot! I'll do it myself!
(I take the weapon I'm holding and shoot myself in the head.)

The Painful Hits
I was shot 3 times in the left leg by DX and hi Big Blast, there are still welts.
I was shot in the neck by Silencer's big blast.
I was shot in the head when Silencer's stefan rebounded against a bar.
I was shot in the eye by keef's Longshot. Thankfully I wore goggle.
I was shot point blank at my crotch by Mind13's brother for no reason. Couldn't walk straight for 18 seconds. And it was a direct hit.



#169858 Bike Nerf

Posted by Echnalaid on 16 August 2008 - 10:12 PM in General Nerf

Sounds impractical to me. Vulcan on the back of a golf cart? Maybe.

I had an idea similar to that the other day. About the bike idea, maybe you could strap a wagon on the back of a bike and have the wagon dude shoot. It would probably unsafe, but it seems fun to me. Not to mention bikes and go karts would be useful in CTF games.


I had the same idea, but instead of attaching wagon to a bike, my friend sat in a Radio Flyer, and I pulled. He was using a Wildfire and we we were going down hill. It wasn't safe idea, but we managed to gun down the other team. But I don't recommend doing that.



#172092 Splitfire Holster

Posted by Echnalaid on 24 August 2008 - 05:19 PM in Modifications

That's a nice and quick (cosmetic?) mod. I like holsters, and most holsters I've seen fall off very easily. I like how it's very stable and clips to a belt.



#172103 Quick Longshot Clip Mod

Posted by Echnalaid on 24 August 2008 - 06:07 PM in Modifications

You know how on the Longshot you have to hold the switch on the side, then pull out the clip? Well I found that hard to do because I have small hands. So for my first post/topic/write-up, I have a really quick mod to solve that problem for those younger nerfers and some older ones to make your Longshot more practical for war.

You will need:
A clip
Hacksaw/Bread Knife

Take your clip
Posted Image


See how it's a square shape thing? That's what makes it stuck to your blaster. Now take your bladed tool and cut the top tip at about a 45 degree angle.
Posted Image


Here's what it should look like when you're done.
Posted Image

It's quick, simple, and efficient. Now you just have to yank it out, but your bolt still has to be pulled back. Hope this gets into the directory!

Any questions?



#172108 Quick Longshot Clip Mod

Posted by Echnalaid on 24 August 2008 - 06:13 PM in Modifications

Do you thing It will damage the clip tooth over time?


I actually did this mod a year ago, And my clip tooth is still in perfect condition.



#172207 Help

Posted by Echnalaid on 24 August 2008 - 11:08 PM in Modifications

Specify. You mean a Longshot front gun integration? If it's that, don't attach it to a trigger. Make it key ring fired.
Posted Image



#172241 Eliminator Internals

Posted by Echnalaid on 25 August 2008 - 01:13 AM in Modifications

Got mine today. Dart Tag version -because I couldn't wait- and also there's another group of folks in the office for whom the Hyperfires might make a good gift. Wars should be more interesting if their arsenal differs from ours, and since they don't seem all that enthusiastic about buying their first guns, we decided to give them a jump start.


Where'd you find the Hyper Fires? And I'm glad to know it coms with 2 eliminators.



#172251 My At2k

Posted by Echnalaid on 25 August 2008 - 03:31 AM in Modifications

Nice use of a pen by the way. I'll try it on mine when it's shipped to my house. Did you saw the bottom of the markers off?



#172253 Help

Posted by Echnalaid on 25 August 2008 - 03:49 AM in Modifications

Yeah I meant longshot front integration mod. Dont you think it is nice to have the string attached to the trigger?


I should have a nice little write up/post when I get my new LS boltsled (I'm just gonna raid my friends basement for it). You can follow that. Should be up in a week, at minimum. My friend's in Asia so I need to wait till he gets back.



#172254 At2k Questions

Posted by Echnalaid on 25 August 2008 - 04:08 AM in Modifications

How long should the AT2K's barrels be? Im considering 12 inches. I'm using PETG, with a pen inside the turret for stability, the standard duct tape wrapped around, and with the pump lugged. Just thought you'd like to know my motives.



#172259 At2k Questions

Posted by Echnalaid on 25 August 2008 - 05:33 AM in Modifications

Thanks. I'll use 7 inches.



#172636 Your Nerf Workshop

Mine's in my basement.

I eat down here.

Screws, hot glue, and assorted barreling material.

Posted Image
Pre-cut FBR.

Posted Image
Boxes holding blasters.

Spray paint and sander.

And across my basement is my test fire target!



#172644 Primary Guns

Posted by Echnalaid on 26 August 2008 - 06:58 PM in General Nerf

Usually my LS or my AT2K.



#172762 Nerf Armor

Posted by Echnalaid on 26 August 2008 - 11:14 PM in General Nerf

Yea, I was thinking of making a suit of armor too, but really light weight and non-movement restriction. And since this is an armor thread, not to hijack the thread, but I thought I'd say my cousin's and my idea. We already have the design and planning done, we just need a lot of cardboard and duct tape. By the way, it's a spartan armor with a helmet. And before you say a helmet sucks, I thought how to make it more comfy an better for war. I will call it TSA-N: Tactical Spartan Armor- Nerf. It has ammo holders and a nitefinder holster. And we made a proto-type that works well. But it's not for large wars. Just community skirmishes of 3-5 people and for looks. And they're easy to make. We plan on making a lot for our neighborhood wars.



#172763 Broken House Hold Items

Posted by Echnalaid on 26 August 2008 - 11:17 PM in General Nerf

I broke my leg while dodging and fell down the stairs.



#172771 Nerf Armor

Posted by Echnalaid on 26 August 2008 - 11:46 PM in General Nerf

But on the note of armour practicality. If you made armour that counted as such in a game you wouldn't have to worry about being that agile if the majority of the body hits on you would not count. For example a knight or a tank doesn't need to be agile because they can just shrug off most hits where as an APC or armoured car that has relativly little armour has to be agile so they can keep the strong part of thier armour to the enemy or get out of situations that are too dangerous.

Well I mean the hit still counts, because it's just on piece of cardboard and you can hear it hit, but the main reason is so that you're not in searing pain if you get shot by something particularly powerful and to have a pistol and ammo ready at hand.



#172774 Longshot Ar Removal Problems

Posted by Echnalaid on 26 August 2008 - 11:53 PM in Modifications

I took the plunger tube and used a long scissor to cut the plate and the AR fell out, then I used a long flat head screw driver and manually drilled the barrel post out.



#172781 Combat Arms

Posted by Echnalaid on 27 August 2008 - 12:02 AM in Off Topic

Pig gun?

It's a reference to maple story. God i hate that game..



#172784 Combat Arms

Posted by Echnalaid on 27 August 2008 - 12:30 AM in Off Topic

So do I, and I was just watching my older brother play it. Anyway, I do play combat arms but my computer takes forever to load. So, I'm going to wait until we upgrade our computer to play it more often. Until then, star wars battlefront 2.

My brother plays it non stop, and the reason I hate MMPORPGs is because everyone talks in SMS. And it's annoying how they say it in real life too. Like instead of not saying anything, they say No comment. Why waste the breath power?! And instead of laughing, they literally say LOL or ROFl! Whet the hell? Sorry for that rant, needed to release some energy.



#172793 Perfect Ramrods

Posted by Echnalaid on 27 August 2008 - 02:20 AM in General Nerf

I use the mighty Lego axle. 2 '12' technic axles connected by a spool link, with a technic ball joint at the end and hot glued togehter. I know, I'm a Lego nerd.



#172929 Nerf Armor Left Arm

Posted by Echnalaid on 27 August 2008 - 06:28 PM in General Nerf

Didn't OMC close the previous topic about this?



#173084 Single Barrel Maverick Video

Posted by Echnalaid on 28 August 2008 - 12:16 AM in Modifications

It's pretty cool. I should try that on my clip-less maverick. That collapsable stock on the bottom, the paint job, and the shape resembles a Scorpion semi-auto machine gun from MGSPO, without the magazine in it.



#173088 Perfect Ramrods

Posted by Echnalaid on 28 August 2008 - 12:52 AM in General Nerf

Only 23-ish pounds? You must be new at this. Try 17 gallons. Plus the stuff that won't fit. Something on the order of 85 pounds.


I got more. 2 whole rooms filled with boxes. That's just at my mom's house! I have on box at my dad's. On topic though, you can make a fairy themed blaster with that piece on the end! That just inspired me to buy hot pink paint. Fairy longshot... The Pixinator...



#173090 What Was Your First Nerf Gun?

Posted by Echnalaid on 28 August 2008 - 01:01 AM in General Nerf

Mine was the strikefire 2 player set as a birthday present.



#173146 Starkiller's Lightsaber From Unleashed

Posted by Echnalaid on 28 August 2008 - 11:53 AM in Off Topic

Sweet. That's hand made?



#173516 What Is The Largest Amount Of Stefans

Posted by Echnalaid on 29 August 2008 - 10:09 PM in General Nerf

A bunch. I lost track. At least 200 though.



#173553 The Things You Say...

Posted by Echnalaid on 29 August 2008 - 10:52 PM in Off Topic

The loudest I screamed in a neighborhood skirmish-
DAMNIT!! HOW DID THAT MISS!?!?! HOW THE HELL DID THAT MISS!?!?!?!
P.S, I missed my entire WildFire raid at very close proximity.
And a few more from neighborhood skirmishes-
U.S.A! U.S.A! U.S.A!- As I do my victory dance
*Maniacal Laughter* AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!- Vulcan/Magstrike/Wildfire Raid



#173561 Women Who Nerf: Boost Or Decrease Attractiveness?

Posted by Echnalaid on 29 August 2008 - 10:59 PM in General Nerf

My female friends just go "Uh-huh, yeah. You have a strange way of life."



#173587 Legality Of Melee Weaponry

Posted by Echnalaid on 30 August 2008 - 12:34 AM in General Nerf

In my nerf wars, my friend uses a foam, Dollar Tree sword in wars. He is very skilled at deflecting darts, I've also been making knives out of the same thing. And buying some chainsaws. Would these be legal at wars? I'm thinking it would count as a barrel tap.
Also on the subject of swords, in my neighborhood wars my sword using friend also uses a shield at the cost of a projectile weapon, and if hit/deflected 3 times, he has to stop usage. Then when he gets hit, when he returns to the game he regains his shield.



#173597 Legality Of Melee Weaponry

Posted by Echnalaid on 30 August 2008 - 02:14 AM in General Nerf

My friend is insane when t comes to reflecting darts. He can slice off a Magstrike raid, though he is weak against a Vulcan raid! And the shield we use is a hand crafted by me Hyrule Shield from halloween last year. It's pretty effective. The reason he uses that is because he sucks at aiming a projectile weapon. I like melee weapons, because you get to say "KNIFED!" when you stab someone.



#173793 Nerf Fight: Hostages

Posted by Echnalaid on 30 August 2008 - 08:48 PM in General Nerf

I love your videos. Very organized. If me and my friends tried something like this, they'd all laugh until they pass out and spaz out in front of the camera.



#173857 Vulcan, Is It Worth It?

Posted by Echnalaid on 31 August 2008 - 01:13 AM in General Nerf

You could have just searched the answers.

And just because I want to geek out about it-
1- It's out, and many people have them.
2- Totally worth it. 25 shots, full auto? The indoor war and siege emperor.
3- Yes, look at Splitlip's Vulcan overhaul.
4- It's awesomeness is so awesome, you will be blinded by it's awesomeness by just looking at it because it's so awesome. It's Hasbro's Best Thing Ever! Shooting, blasting, raiding fun! It's Hasbro's best thing ever! Kids!! Kids!! AAHHH!!!! It's so awesome!!



#175817 Through A Cop's Eyes

Posted by Echnalaid on 07 September 2008 - 10:06 PM in General Nerf

My brother keeps bugging me to saw the bottom part of my NF (The dart holders) and paint it flat black. i keep telling him a cop will stop me in the middle of a game, and his EXACT words are "Dude, it's a fucking toy, a cop's not going to stop you. You think they're that stupid!? They know what a real gun looks like." Obviously, he's never nerfed. He's a "sneak airsoft guns around the school and say nerf is gay because of it's dumb-fuck range and you have to play closely together and they don't hurt" person. I'm saying it looks like a real gun. So I was thinking on asking the NIC when a cop's stopped you in the middle of a game and asked you about your hopefully not flat black painted blasters. I know this is another "legality" thread, but I just want to hear everyone's experiences. And if someone is really dumb enough to make a nerf blaster look like a real firearm, speak up.



#175827 Through A Cop's Eyes

Posted by Echnalaid on 07 September 2008 - 10:30 PM in General Nerf

you're playing assassin with a black nerf gun or walking around with a duffel bag full of black nightfinders, you're just asking for the sort of hilarious misunderstanding that ends up on the 10 o'clock news.


I am sigging that.



#175829 New And In A Slight Hurry

Posted by Echnalaid on 07 September 2008 - 10:32 PM in Modifications

Alright, you need to at least try to use spell check. It's Maverick. Try baghead's hot glue AR removal. It helps a lot for me.
